- Amount applied: 0.5 mL
- Concentration: undiluted
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours
Observation period:
72 hours
Number of animals:
2
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: the right, respectively left flank of each animal was sheared approx. 24 hour prior to application
- Type of wrap if used: air- and vapour permeable gauze-patch (6 cm2), fixed by a gauze-bandage

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: skin was cleaned using a tissue moistened with tap water and subsequently a dry tissue

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Severe erythema were observed at two experimental animals during the 1-hour-observation. One of the experimental animal showed a slight edema at the 1-hour-observation. Both of the experimental animals showed beginning necrosis. After 24, 48 and 72 hours severe erythema, slight edema and necrosis were observed at the two experimental animals. The study aborted after 72 hours, because of the strong reactions. The animals were sacrificed.
